Pieces of my mind. That was the name of my original blog where I posted just that…pieces of my mind…thoughts that I had about different things. That blog has gone its way, replaced eventually by this generic Steve949.com, Facebook, and Instagram.

Sometimes I still have pieces of my mind that I want to share/save and until Facebook supports hashtags this is a much better place for archiving.

So here are the pieces of my mind for this Independence Day weekend (so far)

1. Last Friday at work someone was trying to make the point to me that Trump was a better president than Biden. Want to know how they were trying to make that point? By asking the question “Are you better off financially under Biden than you were under Trump?”
   
   Once again proving that for Trumpublicans, what matters most is, “me”. What’s in it for me? How does it affect me?
   
2. I listened to a large portion of a radio interview with the Trumpublican governor of South Dakota, Kristi Noem. She didn’t answer a single question put to her but instead diverted and redirected each time…until asked if she would support Trump in a reelection bid. Of course, she said yes.
   
   You can watch a small bit of the interview here: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/bash-asks-gop-gov-kristi-noem-if-south-dakota-would-force-a-10-year-old-to-have-a-baby/vi-AAZ999o
   
3. I can’t help but wonder how all the people that are screaming “States Rights” will feel when the issue of a nationwide, Federal abortion ban comes up. I’m thinking they will change their tune. Again.
